Russian army strikes zoo in Kharkiv region with guided bomb

An employee holds a bird that survives a Russian guided aerial bomb strike on the Feldman Ecopark in Kharkiv region, Ukraine, on January 1, 2026. The shelling injures a volunteer and several lions, kills exotic birds such as parrots and pheasants, and destroys winter quarters for birds and predators. Located close to the front line, the ecopark repeatedly suffers from Russian attacks. (Photo by Viacheslav Madiievskyi/Ukrinform/NurPhoto) NO USE RUSSIA. NO USE BELARUS.
